Meghan Markle’s $100 million deal with Netflix is under intense scrutiny as experts warn of significant risks if the project falls through. The Netflix series, which aims to showcase “the joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining and friendship,” is part of a wider collaboration involving both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Currently, Prince Harry is reportedly Working on an episode with Polo.
Public relations expert Mark Borkowski expressed his concerns publicly in an interview with NearBorkowski commented: “This is a profound change of direction for Meghan, in some ways she will become a Martha Stewart.” Borkowski believes that if Meghan can successfully adapt to this new role, it could be very lucrative. “If Meghan can pull it off, it will be a very rich vein to exploit,” he said.
Borkowski stressed the potential benefits of success: “If it’s successful, it will be a huge step forward and it will remove a lot of the negativity that has come with it. And it will make a lot of people take her very seriously.” However, she also acknowledged the high stakes, noting: “As a source of income, it’s huge… if she does it right. But it could be decisive for the duchess if the show is yet another failure.”
In his closing remarks, Borkowski warned of the implications of repeated setbacks: “I don’t think you can have that many failed projects without people wondering what she’s going to do next.” As the world watches, Meghan Markle is under a lot of pressure to deliver a hit Netflix series. The outcome could either cement her as a serious figure in the entertainment industry or generate more criticism and doubt about her projects.
